70's Tokai 'Cats Eyes' Stainless Steel Refret + Handcrafted Bone Nut

Stainless Steel Refret + Handcrafted Bone Nut on this 1970's Japanese Tokai 'Cats Eyes' acoustic 💥


The previous fretwork had worn extremely low and was ready for a refret, sanded a new radius in the rosewood fretboard before adding the SS frets, full level, crown and dress.


I made a new bone nut which required a lot of work to odd shape and fitting of the stock nut. Set up with Elixir 12-54"

Great low action, fantastic sustain, a really lovely tone .... now it's something to lose yourself with, as you 'noodle' away many, many hours.
